BOMB SQUAD
[Shocklee Innertainment]
The Bomb Squad is one of classic hip-hop's most influential production teams, noted for their dense, distinct, innovative production style, often utilizing dozens of samples on just one track. They are also known for their ability to incorporate harsh, unmelodic sounds and samples into their songs, generally enhancing them. They produced classic albums for Public Enemy, Ice Cube, 3rd Bass, Leaders of the New School, RUN-DMC and many more. Now, for the second time in history, they'll be performing a live set in their home town of NYC.

NOSAJ THING
[Los Angeles]
One of our favorite local laptop geniuses, Nosaj Thing represents the next generation of L.A. electronic music producers. He's already rocked Low End Theory several times, but we can't seem to get enough of his glitch-injected breaks. Trust, you're witnessing the birth of another giant.

THE GASLAMP KILLER
[MHE]
Over the course of the last few years, Gaslamp Killer has established a solid rep for devastating beats and intricate cuts. This nomadic West Coaster has steadily smashed the scene from San Diego to Los Angeles to San Francisco, earning the respect of heavyweight players in the process. Bear witness to one of his epic sets and see what the buzz is all about.

NOCANDO
[Alpha Pup]
He's no longer a secret. After winning the 2007 Scribble Jam MC Battle Championship, Nocando has been catapulted to new levels of international fame. He spent many Thursday nights honing his skills at Project Blowed, and has broken the dreams and hopes of countless would-be-MCs.

And local NYC resident
ELIOT LIPP
[Hefty]
Laying down a bedrock of notorious breakbeats under his signature Sequential Circuits and Korg MS-20 leads, Eliot Lipp has created a signature sound that has had the electronic music world stuck-on-stupid for the last four years. Eliot's instrumentals pour forth more emotion than most modern-day crooners, and while his beats bang with a gorgeous intensity. Eliot has rocked the original Low End on several occasions, and will be holding down the NYC monthly.
